ICEJ report: Israel’s Case for Dismantling Hamas Rule in Gaza

Am very pleased to read this definition of demoniacs’ culpability in international law, as stated in the 2-page report by David Parsons, Vice President of International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, on Israel’s Case for Dismantling Hamas Rule in Gaza (emphases mine)

‘DID HAMAS COMMIT WAR CRIMES?

The horrific acts against Israeli citizens on October 7 make Hamas and Islamic Jihad criminally liable for war crimes. They especially violated the “rule of distinction” requiring combatants to limit attacks to legitimate military targets, whereas Hamas willfully and deliberately attacked civilians, including an outdoor music festival, motorists on roads, and families still at home in their beds.
They tortured, mutilated, raped, beheaded, kidnapped and burnt people alive. In addition, Hamas cynically uses the civilian population in Gaza as human shields, and uses mosques, hospitals, schools, and private homes as weapons storage facilities and firing platforms. Thus, Israel is just in responding to these Hamas war crimes.’

Bible teacher Amir Tsarfati residing in Galilee (Behold Israel) posted this today, but which excludes tens of thousands of rockets fired into Israel over 20 years (JVL):

Psalm 83 & ‘Gog-Magog’ Update: Iran warns Israel, Imam threatens whole world with war!

It was our usual long weekend with just a few intervals for being online and thus posting only quick news updates on Richard’s Watch Telegram, but I jotted above title for next post. First. however a…

CLARIFICATION:

Neil Mackereth’s The Existential Threat to Israel is a tripartite briefing and each part is not to be taken in isolation and thus taken out of context and get misconstrued, even in considering scripture, for which Chris Moyler provided extensive citations:
  1. (Return of The Mahdi) Islam’s Counterfeit Christ
  2. Gaza in Bible History and Prophecy
  3. A War for Survival

It is vital to be aware of how this situation relates to Islamic end-times doctrine. Neil subsequently writes me, “I am certain that Israel faces an enemy that is intent on its annihilation; ie. an existential threat. I know Israel will survive – the Bible tells me so.”

Further to Ezekiel’s Gog-Magog Prophecy Revisited – ‘Stop-Press’ on Part 3:

GOG-MAGOG ALLIANCE-RELATED NEWS:

A few for a quick scan through. First in case you thought Neil and I are making it up + confirmation of my ‘two jigsaw-pieces’ through a word brought by prophet Julie Green:

(Russia attacked Odessa)

A PROPHET’S CONFIRMATION:

SOME REFERENCE SOURCES:

PSALM 83 (BibleGateway link)

“Dear Friends (writes Chris Moyler),
James Goll is a seasoned and trustworthy leader in God’s House. In this video [RB: not attached] he speaks prophetically about this present Gaza War. He believes that it will expand and draw in all the nations that immediately surround Israel.

He says clearly that he believes this to be the fulfillment of Ps 83. Verse 4 is an almost word for word statement of the Hamas Covenant, which specifically states that Israel will be wiped from the map.

The Psalm concludes with a prayer for the destruction of Israel’s enemies, specifically in order that the SOVEREIGNTY OF ALMIGHTY GOD might be displayed through Israel’s victory, and that HIS NAME might be hallowed in all of the earth:

17,18 “Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace, that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.”

And yet there is also a prayer for God’s grace to extend to those will will lose in this war:

Psalm 83:16 “Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O LORD.”

We want to see Hamas utterly destroyed, ditto Hezbollah, because these movements lead the peoples away from the only One who is able to give life to all mankind, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel.

Amen

Finally, I continue to believe that this is NOT the final Gog-Magog war. Satan would like it to be so, because what he most fears is the emergence of the sons of God in the earth, Christ’s pure and spotless Bride.

Ezekiel 38:8 ‘After many days you will be mustered. In the latter years you will go against the land that is restored from war, the land whose people were gathered from many peoples upon the mountains of Israel, which had been a continual waste. Its people were brought out from the peoples and now dwell securely, all of them.’

please note:
-“restored from war,”
-“its people were brought out from the peoples”
-“now dwell securely.”
-“ALL OF THEM.”

Since King David and King Solomon, there has never been a time when ALL of the people of Israel have dwelt there securely, in THEIR OWN land. Therefore, I continue to contend that this must be the condition of the Land and the Jewish people in it, prior to the final Gog-Magog war. That war is exclusively in the FATHER’s timing, and NO-ONE ELSE’S.

HE ALONE sets the calendar of the Earth!

And, of course, Satan wants to prevent the VAST end time harvest of souls for the Kingdom.

But judgement has already been given to the saints, and he will NOT be allowed to “change the times.”

Dan 7:21,22
‘As I looked, this horn made war with the saints and prevailed over them, until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given for the saints of the Most High, and the time came when the saints possessed the kingdom.’

So let us banish all fear from our hearts, and let us boldly proclaim God’s goodness over and above these troubled days.

Amen, Chris x

Psalms 83:16 Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O LORD.”

Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel

A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.

83 Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!
For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult;
And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head.
They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

For they have consulted together with one [c]consent;
They [d]form a confederacy against You:
The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab and the Hagrites;
Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. Selah

Deal with them as with Midian,
As with Sisera,
As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,
10 Who perished at En Dor,
Who became as refuse on the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb,
Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves
The pastures of God for a possession.”

13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust,
Like the chaff before the wind!
14 As the fire burns the woods,
And as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
15 So pursue them with Your tempest,
And frighten them with Your storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame,
That they may seek Your name, O Lord.
17 Let them be [e]confounded and dismayed forever;
Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord,
Are the Most High over all the earth.

The Existential Threat to Israel – Part 3: A War of Survival – Neil Mackereth

Hot on the heels of Part 2 my retired soldier friend and author of Signs: The Significance of Bible Prophecy submitted this afternoon (images added): 

THE  EXISTENTIAL  THREAT  TO  ISRAEL  PART 3 – A WAR OF SURVIVAL

Introduction

This is a very critical time in the history of modern Israel. I believe that decisions
made in the next few days will determine whether the Gog and Magog war (Ezekiel
38) is precipitated or if, alternatively, there will be a victory of sorts in Gaza followed
by a period of peace. The latter may seem the more attractive outcome; however,
there is no doubt that the Gog and Magog war is coming.

As I said at the end of Part 2, the situation is changing as I write. What is more, it is
difficult to get accurate real-time information. I am deeply distressed by the
polarisation that is developing; and by the BBC reporting, which seems intent on
encouraging that polarisation. [RB. It’s exceptionally badly biased pro-hamas support was noted 9 years ago in my Call for Clarity on Israel and Gaza!)

The media must bear some responsibility for the imbalance in reporting that, I believe, is encouraging mass intolerance and demonstrations, in support of a movement many of the partakers know very little about. Watching recent news reports, I am reminded of scenes from “Kristallnacht” in Germany in 1938, when marauding mobs roamed the streets attacking Jewish homes, businesses and synagogues.

RB: In his frequent on-the-ground updates Amir Tsarfati gives this informative link to a virtual Mapping the October 7th Massacres

The Dilemma Facing Israel

In any military appreciation of a situation, it is always wise to seek to assess, and try
to better understand, the situation from the enemy’s point of view. That requires a
working knowledge of their motives, intentions, strengths and weaknesses, and
tactics; and, in particular, what they must be stopped from doing, whatever the cost.
The leaders of Israel face an almost impossible dilemma.

Some key factors affecting their decision making:
  • Iran, and its proxies, are motivated by a deeply flawed genocidal Muslim
    theology.
  • Israel is losing the propaganda war – and putting Israel, and Jews world-wide,
    in great jeopardy.
  • Every effort must be made to rescue the hostages.
  • Hamas uses the Gaza population as a human shield and hides its operational
    headquarters, weapons and munitions etc., in tunnels under hospitals,
    schools and such like.
  • Hamas pays no heed to the “rules of war”.
  • World opinion, and the need to maintain the support of allies, may limit flexibility (hamper operations).
  • Iran is likely to have the ability to build and deliver nuclear warheads, within
    weeks. The thought of that capability, being in the hands of radical Muslim
    fanatics, is frightening.
  • Hezbollah has over 100,000 fighters, is far better equipped and trained than
    Hamas, and has at least 100,000 rockets, many of which are sophisticated
    precision (targetable) missiles, plus drones and anti-tank, anti-aircraft and
    anti-ship missiles.
  • If Hezbollah where to attack fully now, Israel is mobilised and ready; if they don’t,
    Israel has to ask why not?
  • Possibilities (What Ifs): Perhaps Iran’s strategy involves the drawing out of the IDF, and the loss of Hamas and Gaza citizens may be viewed as a necessary sacrifice (collateral damage) to achieving their ultimate goal (explained in Part 1, radical Muslims do not have a western mind-set). Or perhaps Iran wants to delay an attack, in order to complete its nuclear weapons programme.

Summary

For Israel, “victory” in Gaza (and only Gaza) could lead to a false peace and, as a
consequence, to the demobilisation of reservists. The battle fatigued reservists would return home (and back to work) and start to relax. If Hezbollah were then to launch a full-scale attack, i.e., shortly after IDF demobilisation, the challenges for Israel would be immense.

God is revealing the true nature of the society in which we live, and it is alarmingly bad. The liberals, who took control of the madhouse decades ago, do not understand what they have unleashed. Their view that most, if not all, people are motivated by logic, reason and self-interest is flawed: there are some who will never enter negotiations with honest intent.

Iran and its proxies are driven by a deep pathological hatred of Israel and are committed to a radical Muslim theology that demands the annihilation of all Jews.
Similarly, the “Palestinian Cause” has always been a cover for the expulsion of Jews
from Israel, and has never been about sharing the land.

Why are the blood-chilling genocidal statements made by anti-Israel leaders and clerics, that show their true motives, never broadcast by the mainstream media?

Conclusion

Israel is fighting a war for its existence against a genocidal enemy. Whichever way things go, it seems inevitable that Israel will be vilified and, by association, all Jews world-wide will suffer.

Undoubtedly, one of Satan’s objectives, in his attempts to undermine God’s redemptive plan, is to stop the fulfillment of Biblical End-times prophecy. To that end, he is seeking to annihilate all Jews so that Jesus has no Jewish Kingdom to which to return and rule. The Bible shows that he will fail.

We may appear to be in an unstoppable downward spiral to disaster, but God’s plans
will not be thwarted. It has never been more important to understand the signs of the
times, watch for the fulfillment of prophecy, and to be ready. JESUS WILL RETURN.
Halleluiah!

Cont’d: ‘…to the international media – this is how the terrorist organization Hamas takes fuel from the hospitals in the Gaza Strip, at the expense of the humanitarian needs of the residents of Gaza.

The exposed conversation between the commander of the West Jabaliya battalion of Hamas and Gazati, with the participation of the director of the Indonesian hospital, is further proof of Hamas’ cynical use of humanitarian resources in the Gaza Strip. In addition, the conversation confirms that the terrorist organization Hamas controls the existing energy resources in the Gaza Strip and chooses to channel them for its operational needs at the expense of the needs of the civilian population.’

The Existential Threat to Israel – Part 2: Gaza in Bible history and prophecy – Neil Mackereth

Continuing from Part 1 and, in view of its direct relevance, again I head up my friend’s exposition with this from Behold Israel channel:

THE  EXISTENTIAL  THREAT  TO  ISRAEL – Part 2

Gaza

I was surprised to discover that Gaza is mentioned at least 20 times in the Bible. The
only positive reference I could find was the story, in Acts 8, where Phillip evangelises
and baptises a man who is on his way to Gaza.

For the most part, Gaza is referred to as a place where the leaders and people (e.g.,
the Canaanites and the Philistines) hated God and the Israelites. The Israelites, in
Judges 1, were ordered by God to conquer Gaza, which they did.

The prophets Amos (1:6-7), Zephania (2:4) and Zechariah (9:5) wrote about the
wickedness of Gaza and the judgement that God would bring upon its inhabitants.
I will return shortly to the question of whether the current calamity in Gaza has end-
times significance.

The Palestinian Cause

The Palestinians have shaped a widely accepted narrative, about their history and
situation, which is based on lies. They have been so successful in convincing the
media to promulgate their version of history, that any attempt to challenge the
accuracy of their fabricated story is now seen as race hatred and/or Islamophobia.
Comments that the region has been “Palestine” for 2000 years, and that Gaza has
been confined and its people oppressed by colonialist Israel, are simply not true.
These entrenched views are well-nigh impossible to correct.

Rather than reiterate what others have said, I recommend the comprehensive and
well-researched articles posted on “Richard’s Watch”: Conversations and corrections
over history of Palestine and Israel – 1 of 2  and 2 of 2

Also, a “Prophecy Today” article, which lays bare some very uncomfortable facts about the true intentions of Radical and Apocalyptic Islam: Cutting Through the Fog of War

In a nutshell, the land (about 10 times the size of current Israel) was given by God to
the Israelites over 4000 years ago. Roman Emperor Hadrian crushed an Israeli
revolt in 135 AD and renamed Israel (Judea) Syria Palistina, in his attempts to
subdue Jewish nationalism.

The truth is that, after they began returning to Israel and the state consequently being established in 1948, it was to a very small area of their homeland.

In researching these topics: I have noted that many sources of information, including
the UN, have sanitised (adjusted or omitted) parts of the History of the region.

The tragedy of the false “Palestinian” narrative is that many compassionate people,
with a heart for the disadvantaged and social justice, do not understand the full
history of the movements they support: the people of Gaza need to be freed from
Hamas (see Part 1). Hamas have no interest or concern for the well-being of the
people they use as their human shields in Gaza, and who they exploit for propaganda
purposes.

Prophetic Significance

Returning to the question of Gaza’s prophetic significance. There are a number of
biblical prophecies that need to be borne in mind, by anyone who is intentional about
marrying past prophecies with contemporary events. Time will tell whether we are
witnessing Matthew 24 “birth pains”, or further along the End-Times time-line. Some
relevant prophecies:

  1. Damascus will be in ruins (Isaiah 17:1)
  2. There will be wars and rumours of wars (Matthew 24:6-7)
  3. Gaza will writhe in agony (Zechariah 9:5)
  4. False teachers and prophets will lead people astray (2 Peter 2:1-2)
  5. Earthquakes, famines, plague and pestilences will intensify (Luke 21:11)
  6. Travel and knowledge will increase greatly (Daniel 12:4)
  7.  People will prefer fantasy to reality, myth to truth (2 Timothy 4:3-4).
  8. The Jews have returned to their Biblical homeland (many prophecies); however,
    not all of the Jews have returned, and only to a fraction of the “Promised Land”.
  9. The desolate land (Israel) will (has) become fertile and fruitful—Zechariah 7:14.
  10. Things will be as they were in the days of Noah and people will be proud,
    unforgiving, lovers of self, lovers of money and pleasure (2 Timothy 3:1-5).
  11. For any communication on end time prophecies the message, and the
    messenger, will be mocked and ridiculed (2 Peter 3:3-4).
  12. The whole world will see Jerusalem as a problem (Zechariah 12:2-3).
  13. Christians will be persecuted and martyred (Matthew 24:9).
  14. Many will turn away from the Christian faith (Matthew 24:10).

Where Are We?

I am not sure, but what I can say is that we are not yet in the Ezekiel 38
Gog and Magog war. Some reasons: Russia (Magog)and Iran (Persia) are
not directly involved; Israel is not alone (weapons, equipment and
diplomatic support coming from other nations); Christians have not been
raptured (?)(!). However, the situation could alter very rapidly.

I had thought I would be able to “conclude” at this point. Not so, even as
I write I begin to hear and to realise that things are far more fragile than
I had originally believed. Israel is fighting for its very existence, and I will
explain why in Part 3.

‘God-incidence’ of 2nd Pivotal Point foretold by Jesus: “As in the Days of Noah…”

MY, WHAT A ‘GOD-INCIDENCE’!
This morning I read two separate items published yesterday referring to The Days of Noah. First, from the collection of news items on progress of prophecies brought by Julie Green:

PS. Note the ‘double-22’ yet again in the date of her covering prophecy!

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-12681313/Has-Noahs-Ark-Archaeologists-reveal-ruins-Turkeys-boat-shaped-mound-date-5-000-years-ago-period-Biblical-flood.html

Secondly, in last night’s Koenig’s Eye View From The White House, Bill Wilson KIN Senior Analyst writes (emphases mine):

‘The Days of Noah and our Prophetic Times

WASH—Oct 23—KIN–The Biblical account of Noah has very similar underpinnings to the current condition of the world. As evil plays out in the Hamas attack on Israel, we can see clearly the inhumanity of humanity. When a group of people led by hatred and a genocidal ideology boldly murder, rape, torture, and dismember an innocent population, then is praised by the masses and justified by media, we know that the visitation of evil is upon us.

The prophetic words of Christ about the end of days resonate with this time in which we live. While there are several events that must occur before the return of Christ, we are witnessing prophetic signs of the coming end of the age both in the general world population and in Israel in particular.

Asked by his disciples about the signs of his coming and the end of the world, Christ was very specific. He likened world conditions to the time of Noah, when God cleansed the earth with the great flood. In Luke 17:26-27, Christ said,

“And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.”

Likewise, Matthew quoted Christ saying,

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.”

Genesis 6:5-8 tells us the why behind both the flood and Noah’s position with God, “Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD…Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.”

Herein, is the hope and faith for each of us as time closes in on the return of Christ. 2 Peter 2:5 says God “did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness…”

2 Peter 2:9 concludes that “the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of danger.” The Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 10:13 that no adversity, or temptation, has overtaken you except what is common to man, but God is faithful and will not allow you to go through more than what you can bear, and with the adversity he “will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.”

How? By your faith. Hebrews 11:17 says, “By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.”

Noah is an example for us in these dark, yet prophetic times. By faith, let us look beyond the evil of the days to the promise of our prophetic destiny. Be encouraged. You are HIS!’

PS (16:40): Daily Telegraph:

Conversations and corrections over history of Palestine and Israel – 2 of 2

Preface:

The purpose of my recounting these online conversations is to ensure visitors to this blog can appreciate that there’s a far deeper background to Israel’s ‘Day of Infamy’ on 6th October than is claimed by militant masses devoid of compassion, who instead complain vociferously about Palestinians being trampled down.

NB: many traditional Jews are opposed to Zionism and the creation of a national state of Israel.

In A Call for Clarity on Israel and Gaza (July 2014) I cite renowned British journalist Melanie Phillips:

“This thing ultimately defies rational explanation. As Islamist savagery spreads, the moral depravity of the Western animus against Israel and the Jews can only be described as a metaphysical psychosis.”

Why did the West turn against Israel? In answering, Melanie refers to the conventional explanation that, with the post-1967 ‘occupation’, modern David turned into Goliath.

In The West’s Metaphysical Psychosis Melanie provides a solid explanation by referring to Joshua Murvachik’s new book, Making David into Goliath: How the World Turned Against Israel. Eg. China’s oppression of Tibet didn’t produce the same reaction. In her review Melanie puts Murvachik’s illuminating analysis of the inexplicable into a nutshell – the Arab and Muslim world set out to bend the Western mind, and succeeded.’

COMMENTARIES CONT’D

Soon after that infamous day, John Barber posted his observations at JRB Publications Israel at War. What is Happening in Israel Today followed by yesterday’s Israel and Calvinism – two hot potatoes!, which generated ‘conversations’ on Facebook.

Also yesterday, as in the previous part 1, John shares John Hymus’ item and to which one of his regular contributors objects as to its history but rightly says the satisfactory answer must be a two-states solution.

NOW, that’s just what Netanyahu was working towards with Saudi Arabia BUT which goal is not what terrorist controllers of Gaza desire – hence hamas’ war-crime to stop development of the two-state solution.  Moreover, during negotiations of 1993 Oslo Peace Accords the Palestinian Authority often delayed progress!!!

‘P’, another regular with whom I’ve ‘discussed’ American politics, claims Israeli brutality against ordinary Palestinians and political frustration resulted in the nazi-style pogrom.

Obviously, both my protagonists are unfamiliar with hamas’ true, published objectives and the first, being an atheist, rebuked me as God that people believe in is the same whatever their faith.  So I told him Islam’s god is very different Io the real God with whom Christians are in a personal relationship.

‘P’ reacts: “This more than “Hot potatoes” this is murder of women and children. This coming from Jewish Voice for Peace…” (copy JVP article, the statistics of which are to be verified, saying Israel guilty of genocide and attacking West Bank Palestinians).

Being open-minded I wanted to check out this source, as I’d heard about Jewish Voice for Peace in connection with a mob inside the US Capitol led by an offensive Islamist.

I found JVP’s reaction to the massacre – but whilst regret over loss of lives, there’s NO condemnation of the barbarity. Upon spotting a key factual error of 20th Century history I reply to ‘P’ as follows:

Upon checking JVP’s site and coverage of the barbaric massacre and kidnapping of hundreds of Jews during their sabbath, plus people from over 40 nations – not just an attack on Jews alone but also upon the global community! – I note they fail to mention it was a deliberate albeit undeclared act of war. However they excuse it with two wrongs DO make it right – thereby hypocritically copying Israel!

JVP article states, “The Israeli government may have just declared war, but its war on Palestinians started over 75 years ago. Israeli apartheid and occupation — and United States complicity in that oppression — are the source of all this violence. Reality is shaped by when you start the clock.”

War started by Israel “over 75 years ago” > WRONG! A LIE!

100 years ago during the rise of Arab nationalism Yasser Arafat’s uncle Haj Amin al-Husseini, who rose to become Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and close friend of Hitler, incited bloody anti-Jewish riots in 1920, ’29 & ’36 – AND to our great shame with connivance of British officials overseeing our Mandate of Palestine!!! https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/haj-amin-al-husseini

And after World War II, ARAB nations continued to wage war against the long-established and immigrant Jewish communities!

So, we need factual historical honesty, do we not?

As JVP claims reality is shaped when ‘the clock’ starts, it begs these questions:

  • why have they got timing and associated facts wrong – and implicitly,
  • what else do they get wrong, even deliberately distort??

PS Remember the Islamic principle of taqiyaa – lying and dissimulation is approved by their god!”

‘P’ responds: “This is a Jewish site not Islamic.”

RB: “Yes I know, but it will indubitably be influenced by Muslims, as inferred from inaccuracy on basic historic facts.”

With respect to that influence, even infiltration perhaps, here’s what I already knew – NB Anti-Defamation League’s warning about Jewish Voice for Peace!!!:

Oh by the way, the same threat of decades ago but no longer to be ignored:

The Existential Threat to Israel – Part 1: Islam’s counterfeit Christ – Neil Mackereth

After these quieter years of reduced coverage of the Middle-East, it’s strange to remind ourselves of the Iranian regime’s ominous role, not only in directing its proxy terrorists against Israel but also its inhuman Shiite theology about the necessity of killing people in order to hasten the return of its false ‘messiah’ (click to read my many posts on this issue).

So I’m pleased to welcome and publish Neil Mackereth’s latest analysis (emphases mine):

THE  EXISTENTIAL  THREAT  AGAINST  ISRAEL – PART 1

Introduction

There seems to be a view that Jews should not seek to prevent their own destruction.

However great the evil atrocities perpetrated against them, it is not long after the event before Israel is being called upon to be proportionate and show restraint – the hypocrisy is staggering.

Furthermore, the recognition, in some cases mealy mouthed, that Israel has a right to defend itself is undermined by the immediate acceptance of Hamas claims of Israeli “atrocities”, without due diligence, appropriate caution, and certainly without equally loud coverage, if and when the claim turns out to have been a lie.

Mass rallies in support of the “Palestinian cause”, in reality, venerate terrorists and infer that genocidal Hamas’ behaviour is resistance, while Israeli resistance is genocide!

The media seem to miss the point that Hamas, the “government” of Gaza, shows no interest in the welfare of the Palestinians living in Gaza, pays no attention to the laws relating to the conduct of war, and seeks the annihilation of all Jews. For Israel to survive, Hamas needs to be expunged, and that may require a surgical strike on Iran, the “puppet-masters”; as well as a ground war in Gaza.

Background

I am convinced that the world faces an unprecedented, much misunderstood and, even now, barely acknowledged threat from both “Radical Islam” and “Apocalyptic Islam”.

I want to be clear; many Muslims are peace-loving, law-abiding and blameless.

However, it is an uncomfortable fact that jihadists and fundamentalists are still real Muslims. Furthermore, it is sad that, as our media shows, there are mass rallies and protests by Muslim extremists, but we do not hear much from the moderate peace-loving Muslims.

Recent events relating to Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, have highlighted the dangers of complacency when looking at the rise of Iran and its terrorist proxies. Iran is, to a large extent, a hermit kingdom. Our western mindset and ignorance have blinded us to the truth of its intentions and methods. It hungers for genocide; its religious views make it constitutionally incapable of certain types of change, even if that change might ensure its survival; and it considers itself a herald of —and a likely headline player in — the imminent end of the world.

Iran follows a fundamentalist Islamic creed that it believes will lead to a final confrontation that precipitates the return of the Mahdi (the 12th Imam) the Islamic “messiah”. In this respect, Iran has a medieval religious fervour, commitment and mission that the West has difficulty understanding.

This ideology permeates the whole legal and political direction of Iran. There is no genuine recognition of, or negotiation with, any nation or person who has not given allegiance to Islam. In other words, recognition of other nations, international treaties, laws and so on, is only tolerated as a necessary expedient, or stepping stone, to its ultimate goal. In truth, it is duty-bound not to negotiate with infidels. Therein lies the challenge!

Most commentators agree that the Shi’a leaders of Iran are seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, by whatever means, and they make no secret of their ambition to destroy Israel. They seek to hasten the final world confrontation, precipitating the Mahdi’s return. They have also expressed their aim to rid the world of the United States, a country they refer to as “The Great Satan.” We have seen that the possibility of collateral damage to “friends” plays no part in the strategy and tactics of Iran and its proxies.

Israel is convinced that it faces a nation whose rulers are driven by an apocalyptic, genocidal, End-times eschatology which involves the annihilation of Israel.

The question for diplomats and negotiators operating on behalf of democratic western nations, is whether they can rely on there being any honest intent or integrity in any pledges made by those who actually see it as in their best interests to mislead and prevaricate?

The Return of the Mahdi

The Mahdi, or 12th Imam, is the anticipated saviour of Islam destined to lead Muslims to world domination. Some Muslim leaders see it as their duty to precipitate the return of the Mahdi by instigating world turmoil. The Muslim teaching, that Jesus was a prophet who will return, can cause confusion because of its apparent similarity with Christianity. However, the “Jesus” of Islam is not accepted as Son of God and is foreseen as returning as an assistant of the Mahdi, enforcing conversion to Islam.

The belief in the imminent return of the Mahdi is more prevalent amongst Middle-Eastern Muslims than might be expected.

According to a poll taken by the Pew Research Centre in 2012, a surprisingly large number of Muslims in Middle Eastern countries believe they will live to see the return of the Mahdi. The figures for this belief by Muslims of the Mahdi’s imminent return are: Egyptians 40%; Jordanians 41%; Palestinians 46%; Iraqis 72%.

Figures for those Muslims who believe Jesus will return as a deputy to the Mahdi are: Egyptians 39%; Jordanians 29%; Palestinians 46% and Iraqis 64%.

Christians need to be aware of this parallel and counterfeit version of the return of Christ and understand the political implications of this teaching about a false messiah and a false prophet. The leaders of radical and apocalyptic Islam are seeking to mobilise those who share their End-times views and to convert or destroy those who don’t.

Is what is happening in Israel and Gaza an End-times “sign”? The brutality of Hamas certainly fulfils Jesus’ general predictions of violence in the End-times. Radical and apocalyptic Islam might also be seen as contributors to the urgent need for a peace treaty which will, in fact, be the catalyst for the start of the time of tribulation.

I will look at the Biblical significance of Gaza in Part 2.

Humanity’s 2nd Pivotal Point: Update #1 – personal choice of good or evil

Recap of Summary from This the 2nd Pivotal Point for Humanity versus satan?

EVERYONE’S PERSONAL CHOICE

Both Historic Pivotal Points apply to EVERY individual as a consequence of personal choice and responsibility. In the First, each person must decide for theirself whether or not to acknowledge Jesus Christ for who He says He is!

“Therefore, whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.  But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 10:32-33 NKJV – BibleGateway.com)

The Second Pivotal Point is about each individual’s reaction to the utterly sub-human barbarism of 7th October atrocity by gazan terrorists and civilians killing, mutilating, burning, raping and kidnapping innocent people. It’s indubitably empowered and enacted by demonic powers to further satanic strategy. Consequently, unless those who express ‘hate speech’ and enact hatred and harm any fellow human being sincerely repent and turn away from such behaviour, they’ve chosen their very own post-mortem, eternal abode – the fiery pit of Hell.

Bible Update re. Four Signposts: 2 of 2 – Mark Davidson

The Hamas Incursion: A Window Into Second Signpost Tactics

‘On closer inspection, there are similarities between Hamas’ attack on southern Israel and how the Second Signpost—the attack and invasion by Iran on Mideast Muslim nations—might play out.

And why not? After all, the IRGC trained Hamas and all the militants in the regions around Israel. I believe we have a window into how the IRGC will conduct war during the Second Signpost. (Click above image for link to continue reading).’

Bible Update re Four Signposts: 1 of 2 – Mark Davidson

The Signpost Perspective: The Hamas-Israel War, 2023

I’ve cited Mark Davidson on several occasions and he now writes:

‘While many could think this is just yet another attack on Israel by one of the many Islamist militias surrounding Israel, it is also one of the most ferocious attacks on Israel since the Yom Kippur War that started 50 years ago.

The Signpost Perspective

From the Signpost perspective, we can look a little deeper into the meaning of this incursion by Hamas. Now, we know from the Signpost theory of Bible interpretation that the Second Signpost is next. There are also reasons (explained in this post and this post) to believe the Psalm 83 war would occur at the same time, in order to pin Israeli forces down allowing the IRGC to invade and occupy Muslim nations. Hamas would correspond to Philistia in the list of peoples attacking in Psalm 83:5–8.

The following is a short list of possibilities, listed from least dangerous to more dangerous….(Click above image for link to continue reading)’

Intel analysis confirms blog on Iran’s long-term goal of war on Israel

Please visit blog’s Telegram channel where several linked items and extracts are posted from Daily Telegraph heading below. They bring detailed confirmation of what I’ve been monitoring since mid-1980s of the Iranian regime’s long-term planning to remove Israel – BUT biblically at their peril:

Jerusalem prophecy gets God-incidental progress upon publication herein

‘ReadyToWorship’ picked up on a poignant part of the word brought by Christopher Wickland that I re-published yesterday wherein he writes:

“…Watch My people, I will raise up nations who will stand up for you, who will defend your cause. I will even cause some who are your enemies to be your allies in the days ahead.

I will raise up sheep nations that will stand alongside you My Ariel. The land of three Lions will come to your aid soon with strength and military power. When they do, you will stand shoulder to shoulder with others whom I will raise to shield you from violence (Hamas)…”

Your fellow reader comments:

  1. Is England the nation of three lions? That is one of our emblems!

  2. God is such a good and loving God. May He give us in England a chance to get it right this time. A land that has harmed and forgotten you Israel, come back, weeping, to help you. May He wipe away your tears and bind you up with his love, and may we be your handservant, and this time, this time, this time, love you as we ought to.

1 > As for the first: football fans are well aware of the 3 lions motif but I did a quick query of Google and find:

The Morrant Group family business provides an excellent historical summary which, of course refers to Richard Coeur-de-Lion, Richard The Lionheart, and Wikipedia states (with relevance to this prophecy?): 

‘Richard was an important Christian commander during the Third Crusade, leading the campaign after the departure of Philip II of France and achieving considerable victories against his Muslim counterpart, Saladin, although he finalised a peace treaty and ended the campaign without retaking Jerusalem.[4]

The Storm…The Reaping…The Rewards – Thomas Harry

Thomas Harry, senior leader of Mount Zion International Tabernacle in Falkirk, Scotland, writes to me :

“We truly live in a historic time and the time of fulfilment of all things is here along with the expected shakings.

The Lord gave me a word on the reward of the righteous and wicked which is in keeping with a lot you share about the exposure of wickedness over the pond. In addition, it has some clarity on the current Israel situation and in particular how the Lord is using all of this to tests our hearts like Matthew 25 will impact nations.

I do not often feel such an urgency with a word, but the aspect of Israel and all of our hearts being judged has been confirmed by several people, so felt I should send to you in case you can share as I know it is central to God’s earth agenda right now. Link is below and was just published today:” 

https://z3news.com/w/urgent-the-time-of-rewards-for-the-righteous-and-the-wicked/

As recommended, first read > https://z3news.com/w/the-calm-before-the-storm/

In view of my long-standing personal interest and inspiration (“This is ALL about to be fulfilled” as told herein) regarding Matthew 13 parable of the wheat and tares, I note Thomas asks in this introductory post (emphases added):

What Type of Storm Is Coming?

Haggai 2:6 “This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.”

“The coming storm is a culmination of all things, spiritual, financial, physical. It will affect all parts of life and nations. It is a clashing of kingdoms. It is the maturity of the wheat and the tares in Matthew 13:30 “Let both grow together until the End Time harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers the angels, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” 

Many can see already the various agendas that are being pushed upon the world and this will only continue until all End-Time scripture is fulfilled. As the Tares must be allowed to be revealed with all their demonic anti-God agenda’s and then judged by God. All of this will further shake the church and the true church (the Wheat) will finally arise from the midst of it. However, we can be encouraged as scripture clearly tells us that there will be a global outpouring, harvest and the manifestation of the sons of God that will lead to the church rising in power. So we all have a part to play if we want to be part of God’s plan for our time.”

His ‘urgent’ follow-up on Time of Rewards for the Righteous and the Wicked refers to Israel and I note especially our standing in agreement on my opinion upon the prime purpose behind satanic strategy:

“This is a land conflict that began with God’s covenant promise to Abraham to give him offspring and the Promised Land back in Genesis 12. That covenant He made with Abraham about the land of Israel predates the Mosaic Law and stands today as God does not break covenant. This is why scripture says in the New Testament – “If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” –  Galatians 3:26. That is the same promise which believers today are a fulfilment of in Christ, exactly as scripture tells us.

Therefore, it is vital believers realize this is a spiritual battle of the highest level as the devil wants Israel wiped out. The same as the enemy sought to abort the destiny of Moses and Jesus and killed all the children in an attempt to stop their arrival and purpose. This is because he wants no nation of Israel to exist for Jesus to return to on the Mount of Olives, which will end the devil’s time of influence on the earth. If believers can grasp that point alone, many will change their perspective forever. Believers would also be greatly impacted if they could only realize that praying for peace in Jerusalem, is actually praying for the Lord’s return, as only the true Prince of Peace will establish peace in Israel, that the entire world is currently burdened with.”

So, A HUGE thank you to the Lord and to Thomas. Also, I note this accords with my asking on Monday Is this 2nd Pivotal Point for humanity versus satan?

More confirmation it’s all about first two jigsaw pieces, Iran and Israel

Regarding my reminder on Monday 9th October about the Lord drawing my attention as a not-yet believer to the great danger the Iranian regime poses to the nation of Israel, on that day Tomi Arayomi broadcast this video and associated ‘short’ poignant summary confirming Iran’s current behind-the-scenes activity. (‘Hat-tip’ to Tony Puccio for trying to send a link in his comment of last night.):

In my large coverage of Iran’s quest to eradicate the state of Israel I’ve occasionally referred to its quasi-religious motivation of deliberately arranging calamitous events in order to hasten the return of their Mahdi, or hidden Twelfth Imam, as in this posted ion 20 July 2012:

My ‘take’ on Iran vs. Israel

Therein I conclude :

‘This blog’s Welcome briefly recounts how I became aware of the huge role played by Iran in ‘The Last Days’. Now and again I refer to Iran in connection with the ‘Ezekiel 38 alliance’, otherwise known as ‘Gog and Magog’ and referred to in Revelation 20.

That role’s warning flags are:

  1. Mid-1980’s joint-rehearsal of the storming of Jerusalem by Iranian-Iraqi elite units, despite fighting on opposite sides during the Iran-Iraq War! (Refer to Review 2 – Iran and Nuclear ‘Fix’).
  2. Very early in his presidency Obama starts secretly appeasing Iran (email 18 May 2009).
  3. July/Aug 2010 – Iran’s nuclear reactor goes live, Supreme Leader reports having been visited by the Hidden Imam about his violent return (email 19 August 2010).
  4. Nov 2011 – referred to event 1 above in ‘Welcome’, introductory post launching this blog.
  5. Nov 2013 – event 1 repeated by Iranian troops in drill ‘Towards Jerusalem’ two years to the date I blogged about the 1980s rehearsal in ‘Welcome’. (Invisible Hand Reappears).
  6. Mar 2015 – The Lord asked, “How many months since that blog you wrote about Iran?”. Upon checking, I’m prompted to expect developments of nuclear deal four months later, ie this July (Review 2 – Iran and Nuclear ‘Fix’). The reference was to when I’d asked if my triple warning about Iran had disrupted my internet’s blogging connection in Nov ’13.
  7. Aug 2015 – new video of IRGC & Iranian proxies ‘imagining’ taking Jerusalem, as related in above section.

Finally, there’s also my statement in March: What’s weird about blogging about Iran.’

Is this 2nd pivotal point for humanity vs. satan?

1st PIVOTAL POINT

The cruel crucifixion of Jesus the Jewish (not Palestinian) Messiah and tortuous death, yet followed by His awesome resurrection back to full physical life – and weeks later His visible ascension into the heavens – are recognised as The Turning Point in the history of humanity.

Why? Because Jesus took upon Himself everybody’s sins, washing us clean by the shedding of His sinless blood in a personal sacrifice in order that we may be forgiven by heavenly Father, and thus be granted access into His throne-room.

Such is the privileged position freely granted to those who are born-again by the Holy Spirit and recognise Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour.

2nd PIVOTAL POINT?

Time to revisit the corkscrew nature of Time!

A couple of points struck me upon reading Wanda Alger’s blog upon her friend Lora Allison’s dream of how Donald Trump’s destiny will be revealed. One point was when she saw a spiral stairway because 7 years ago I’d had an insight about the nature of Time and thus wrote several blogs on the subject. The result was my setting up a static reference hub in the blog’s menu, viz:

TIME: A PRIMER
  1. Eternity and Prophecy
  2. The Nature of Time
  3. Cycles and the Bible
  4. The Natural Year
  5. Historically Significant April

Time is directly related to this blog’s oft-recurring topic of ‘God-incidents’, ie. serendipity, or ‘happy coincidences’, especially those connected to our relationship with God. For a brief introduction to this visit the ‘God-incidents’ hub, and many posts may be read under that term’s tag.  

More importantly for our present purposes and as an introduction to the spiral nature of Time, where its passage may be compared to a corkscrew, I invite you to read what I posted on 5th March 2015 – especially as it leads into considering Revelation 13 and strategies of the hater of humanity relating to the Middle-East, and of which more very alarming ones are being exposed in Britain and USA.

May the Lord bless you as you consider…

THE ‘ENDGAME’ GETS RAMPED UP ANOTHER LEVEL [part 1 of 3]

A fast fortnight ploughed a deep furrow along a cycle of time – ‘a wheel within the greater wheel’ of End-time events…

Bells start ringing that we’ve been here before – and at this time of year too! – like fresh, bright-yellow daffodil bells I see springing up outside!  Let me to add to what others are doing as ‘prep’ for 2015…

Spiral stairway to cloudsTime is non-linear.  Our analytical mindsets think time’s a straight line. Often we see time-lines listing events in history – or use one for our own life.

The passage of time and events is seasonal; ie. cyclical. I regard time like a spiral for, when considered dynamically under the interaction of various influences, it’s just like a corkscrew being turned. Nature provides an excellent example that carries information – the DNA spiral.

Spiral stairs franky242Another example: on a spiral staircase we pass by different walls. If it’s in a castle turret there’d be a doorway on each floor and in the same vertical wall of the well. Regard this wall as a certain kind of event and note how it connects with us, or is relevant to us, at different times and levels.

Hence, various types of event can crop up in a cyclical pattern of repetitions at different levels and show some development has taken place. So it is in history and with God’s plans too, could we but be aware, or receive revelation. Continue reading

2018 vision of demonic laboratories – Charlie Shamp

[Originally published 30 March 2020] Before delving into what the Lord told Charlie two years ago about the likely origin of the current ‘distraction’ (as Tomi and Dr Sharon refer to it), in view of expressed concerns on this contentious topic it’s necessary to explain and note a few ‘God-incidents’…(see original post for Introduction)

THE VISION
I recalled having read the original around the time I was blogging on the words he’d brought on earthquakes, but deemed it wiser not to re-publish another on what can engender fear. Now, however, we can appreciate the vision being of direct relevance to possibilities of the origin of ‘Chinese Flu’:

THE MANTLE OF ABUNDANT LIFE (released 29th May, 2018)

I recently had a troubling vision that I believe will require intercessors to take very seriously and pray into during this time. In this vision I was carried to a place that seemed to be a makeshift laboratory. As I looked around I witnessed someone creating a sinister plan to harm humanity. I could see a laptop filled with thousands of files containing schemes, bomb-making instructions, and research on building home-brewed biological and radiological weapons.

While I stood and looked God brought me into a microscopic dimension where I could see past the view of the naked eye and into a much deeper realm. I could see microscopic organisms that were being created with the intention of spreading bacterial infection to wreak havoc on many; a bio terror attack. The Lord spoke to me and said,

“There are terror cells hidden in America and the nations of the earth. Satan has managed to infect men’s minds with demonic plans involving the intentional release of biological and radiological agents to harm many, they are planning it even now. Those that would commit such demonic acts are filled with the most deep spirit of darkness. The devil used disease from the beginning to destroy humanity, but my Son was manifested that he might destroy the works of Satan in the earth. My church must rise in this hour and pray against these terror attacks that the enemy wants to bring. If they will pray the attack will be uncovered! For there are multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision who have yet to receive me as Lord, but to those that fear My name will the Son of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings. I will cover the people with My feathers and under My wings will they find protection. They will have no fear of this terror, nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that seeks to lay waste in cities. I the Lord will be their habitation there will be no evil befall them, neither will any plague come nigh their dwelling.”

Suddenly I saw a mantle, that looked as though someone of royalty would have worn it, fall to the ground. I heard the Lord say, “I’m offering this mantle to many in this hour, but who will carry it to the ends of the earth for My glory?” I asked the Lord, “What mantle is it?” I heard the Lord say,

“It’s the mantle of abundant life! For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made you free from the law of sin and death. There was one who carried this mantle many generations ago; My servant John G. Lake. He carried it throughout the earth and displaced disease, darkness and death. Through his hands the most deadly diseases were brought to nothing and cities came under My hand of protection and prosperity. This mantle is coming again in the earth to combat what the enemy has set in place to come, but who will carry this mantle for My glory? If My people, which are called by my name will humble themselves, pray and seek my face they will receive it. I will come to work with them, healing and protection will be in their land. I will send My word and heal those around them, deliver them from destruction. I will deliver their soul from death, their eyes from tears and their feet from falling. Behold, I will bring them health and a cure. I will reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth found only in My Kingdom. A true Apostolic authority is about to be revealed that has not been seen in many generations. One that will be known not by title, but by Acts! One that carries authentic power to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the masses. Where the enemy would use some to kill, steal and destroy this anointing will come to bring life and life more abundantly. And there will be a sign that follow those that receive, if they drink any deadly thing it will not hurt them.”

I could see the protection of God’s hand come over regions and bio terror could not penetrate past the vail of the mantle. I saw churches that became distribution centers that released peace upon cities and regions. They had the ability to expose darkness by prayer and secret terror cells were uncovered. I know what I was shown and we must not be slothful in prayer at this time. We must be diligently seeking God for the protection of the nations. We must earnestly desire this mantle of abundant life to come upon the leaders of the body of Christ. I’m calling upon all believers and intercessors to begin to pray this word through and cover your cities with Psalms 91. I believe it is a mandate from the Lord as I can still hear his voice saying, “but who will carry this mantle for my glory?”

Prophet Charlie Shamp, Destiny Encounters International

“All Hail The Lamb, Enthroned on High…His Name is Jesus, He is The Lord”

All hail the Lamb, enthroned on high,

His praise shall be our battle cry.

He reigns victorious,

Forever glorious,

His name is Jesus,

He is the Lord.

This refrain was repeated and then again, and yet again and again, over and over. The young man led worshippers higher and higher; as though with eagles spiralling upwards on heaven-bound thermals…

W MediterraneanThis was no short chorus, but many minutes devoted to praise. Immediately, therefore, I recalled 20-odd years ago being high over the Mediterranean and looking down on southern France. Suddenly, I heard lots of loud voices filling the void beyond the Earth – all singing that same popular earthly chorus. And there was a proclamation from on high!

As an almost new Christian I’d never heard such truly awesome, harmonious singing as that of the angelic host. Harmony upon harmony kept being added as their praise of The Captain of Hosts, the Lamb of God, soared up, and on and on, through the heavens as well as wrapping around Earth. Utterly unforgettable!

[NB. This is a copy of post published 24 January 2013 but now posted afresh to introduce a few posts on this topic based upon the following awesome revelation…]

Upon checking my notes I found that first dream/vision had occurred exactly 21 years before (ie. 6 January 1992). Could this be of significance, not only that 21 = 7 x 3 but also because that day is known as The Epiphany of the Lord – the celebration of God’s revealing Jesus to the world as its true God, Messiah and Saviour. (For an excellent explanation click here).

Additionally, I’d had an email about dreams many Muslims are having of Jesus.  Also, I was prompted to dig out and then blog about notes for a prophetic word, 2011: an ‘epic generation’ – and noticed it too had been publicly delivered on the same feast day!

So, perhaps this reminder happening on the 21st anniversary of the vision means the declaration I heard is now about to be fulfilled?  The situation to which it referred has since grown far more grave, as indicated in the PM’s recent remarks about al-Qaeda.

Whatever was it I’d heard?  My brief notes made at the time are as follows:

The BBC late evening news on 6th January 1992 announced that leaders in the Muslim community wanted to establish a Muslim parliament in Britain, but:

In a dream that night I saw Western Europe, mainly France and the Mediterranean, as if from the space shuttle and heard the popular worship chorus ‘All Hail The Lamb’ being sung, as if in the atmosphere! This praise was repeated many times most melodiously, as though by angelic choir, and seemed to spiral upwards. Then I heard a very loud, authoritative voice declare, “AS COMMUNISM FELL SO, TOO WILL ISLAM FALL!”

Many years later the opening events of the Arab Spring led me to share that ‘event’ with a few friends. By then I’d discovered a couple of prominent prophetic voices had had a similar revelation.  [My interpretation of this dream proved to be of encouragement to a  lady missionary in Marseilles and an evangelist in Egypt; this email refers.] Continue reading
